How To Align Table Headings

A

AKA Spawn

Hello,

Is there a way to align the text that appears in a table heading. It seems
the default alignment is centered. Is there a way to have them default to be
left aligned instead?

I tried aligning my subform's label headings in Design View, but in Form
View the heading text defaults back to centered.

Why does this happen and can it be controlled?

You have no control over the field headings in Datasheet View.
If it's important to you, use Continuous Form view. You can make it
look similar to (but not identical to) datasheet view. Now you have
control over the headings.

You just don't have much control in datasheet view. Change
the form to Continuous view and move the label controls to
the form's header section.
